More chords by Jackson Browne


Dm C Bb F

Looking through some photographs I found inside a drawer

Dm C Bb F

I was taken by a photograph of you

Dm C Bb F

There were one or two I know that you would have liked a little more

Dm C Bb F

But they didn't show your spirit quite as true

Am F

You were turning 'round to see who was behind you

Am C C/Bb

And I took your childish laughter by surprise

Bb/F Dm

And at the moment that my camera happened to find you

Gm Bb F

There was just a trace of sorrow in your eyes

Dm C Bb F

Now the things that I remember seem so distant and so small

Dm C Bb F

Though it hasn't really been that long a time

Dm C Bb F

What I was seeing wasn't what was happening at all

Dm C Bb F

Although for a while, our path did seem to climb

Am F

But when you see through love's illusions, there lies the danger

Am C C/Bb

And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool

Bb/F Dm

So you go running off in search of a perfect stranger

Gm Bb

While the loneliness seems to spring from your life

F C/E Dm C/EDmC

Like a fountain from a pool

Bb F/C A/C# Dm (C)

Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light

Bb F/C A/C# Dm (C)

You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight

Bb F/C A/C# Dm

You've had to hide sometimes, but now you're all right
